Gingerbread Cookie Bars with Eggnog Frosting #ChristmasWeek

Gingerbread Cookie Bars with Eggnog Frosting have the same great flavor as the classic cookie, just with more ease!

Welcome to Day 1 of Christmas Week. This annual event was started in 2012, and is hosted by Kim of Cravings of a Lunatic. This year we have over 35 bloggers sharing festive sweet recipes for the event. Plus we all chipped in for a huge Amazon Gift Card Giveaway so be sure to enter!

This is my second year participating in #ChristmasWeek and I’m pretty excited to be blogging with all these lovelies! Each one of them is amazingly talented…. so you know dang well there’s going to be some deliciousness this week!! We have to get you prepared for Christmas after all, right?!

Well… I had in mind to roll out my Gingerbread Oatmeal Creme Pies for Monday, but… it was a hectic weekend and I had to swap my Monday and Saturday’s around, so be sure to check back all week as I’ll have a recipe for you all week, but the creme pies will be rounding out my sweets!!

I am a huge fan of soft, chewy gingerbread cookies during the winter and this year I wanted to turn them into bars! Boy, was that a great idea. C, even thinks they’re amazing and he doesn’t eat a lot “gingerbread” things. I know they get a big ol’ gold star if he highly enjoys them!

Seriously though… these bars contain the same ingredients as cookies, except they’re much easier as you just press them into the bottom of a 9×13 and bake… then once they’re cool… slap on the eggnog buttercream… I don’t know what heaven tastes like, but these might be pretty close! Just saying…

So enough with me talking… lets get to it….
